People have approved PM Modi’s decision : Sampla

The nation, especially, Punjab’s people have given a befitting reply to them by opposing the bandh

Chandigarh: The nationwide ‘Bharat Bandh’ call against demonitisation given by Opposition parties fizzled out in Punjab. Shops and establishments remained open and it was business as usual in the state.

Lambasting the Opposition, Punjab BJP president, Vijay Sampla said, “The political parties supporting black money and corruption had called for a bandh, but the nation, especially, Punjab’s people have given a befitting reply to them by opposing the bandh, the people have supported the brave decision of the Prime Minister against black money.”

The state party president further said, “With demonitisation, the government has blocked all the channels of black money and the whole nation has backed PM Modi for taking this historic step. This is also evident from the survey in which the 90 per cent of the citizens have supported him. This support has torn apart the Opposition and the all the opposition parties including Congress have taken a severe beating”.

“With the all the developmental works, surgical strike against terrorism and the drive against black money initiated by the government, the people now firmly believe that whatever step PM Modi takes, he will take it in the interests of the nation” added Sampla.DP
